STERILE BARRIER SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ROBOTIC SURGERY SYSTEMS

Abstract:

A robotic surgery apparatus can include a component including a housing with an external surface. The apparatus can include a plurality of component fasteners positioned on the external surface of the housing. The plurality of component fasteners can be configured to couple with a plurality of drape fasteners of a sterile drape. The sterile drape can be configured to cover a portion of the surface of the housing and to provide a sterile barrier for the portion of the surface. A number of component fasteners in the plurality of component fasteners can exceed a number of drape fasteners in the plurality of drape fasteners, permitting the drape to be positioned on the housing of the component in a plurality of orientations and to cover a plurality of different portions of the surface of the housing. When the drape is positioned on the housing, at least one component fastener of the plurality of component fasteners may not be coupled to any of the drape fasteners of the plurality of drape fasteners.
